The fact that it was released on the heels of a much better record [["Love Is Where You Find It") was problematic for me.

    Now that I think about it, Lakeside's release followed "Fantastic Voyage". Releasing discarded material in the wake of successful albums was borderline deceptive marketing.
    I didn't think that Whispers album was that bad. It's also available for download.

    I forgot the exact reason Dick Griffey released all of those albums, but it was connected to his lawsuit against RCA, and his move to Elektra distribution.
